Human Library

Borrow a book and see our full Library schedule here.

36 incredible business owners, leaders and community members will be "books" that can be "borrowed" for a 25 minute, 1:1 conversation to share their passions, projects and perspectives.

The concept is called a Human Library and is based on the belief that everyone has a story to tell, and that sharing these stories can build greater understanding, empathy, and connection within communities. Since originating in Denmark, Human Libraries have since spread globally as an innovative way to promote inclusivity, diversity, and cultural exchange.

March 16th, 12pm-3pm
Y -"The Hustle whisperer; A guide to survive through life using art as tools."
Sisca -"Believing in power of smile and listening to what others have to say."
Rée - "One half of a biracial couple: what Toronto is like as a black woman with an Asian husband"
Christopher - "I'll Never Get to Write My Name in the Snow - Memoirs of a Trans Man"
Morgan - "I am my Father's Daughter; A Journey of Simultaneous Grief and Joy."

Some things to note:
-Please arrive 10 minutes before your first conversation
